igb: Add lock to avoid data race

The commit c23d92b80e0b ("igb: Teardown SR-IOV before
unregister_netdev()") places the unregister_netdev() call after the
igb_disable_sriov() call to avoid functionality issue.

However, it introduces several race conditions when detaching a device.
For example, when .remove() is called, the below interleaving leads to
use-after-free.

 (FREE from device detaching)      |   (USE from netdev core)
igb_remove                         |  igb_ndo_get_vf_config
 igb_disable_sriov                 |  vf >= adapter->vfs_allocated_count?
  kfree(adapter->vf_data)          |
  adapter->vfs_allocated_count = 0 |
                                   |    memcpy(... adapter->vf_data[vf]

Moreover, the igb_disable_sriov() also suffers from data race with the
requests from VF driver.

 (FREE from device detaching)      |   (USE from requests)
igb_remove                         |  igb_msix_other
 igb_disable_sriov                 |   igb_msg_task
  kfree(adapter->vf_data)          |    vf < adapter->vfs_allocated_count
  adapter->vfs_allocated_count = 0 |

To this end, this commit first eliminates the data races from netdev
core by using rtnl_lock (similar to commit 719479230893 ("dpaa2-eth: add
MAC/PHY support through phylink")). And then adds a spinlock to
eliminate races from driver requests. (similar to commit 1e53834ce541
("ixgbe: Add locking to prevent panic when setting sriov_numvfs to zero")
